Our 29-unit memory care community is specially designed to accommodate the unique needs of people with memory care problems. Our community includes comfortable, cozy apartments and superb amenities, along with customized care plans and advanced on-site medical and therapeutic care.

When you visit your loved ones here, you may find them planting flowers, exercising in a fitness class, spending time with a visiting pet, playing a game, or listening to a music performance. That’s because we do our best to keep our residents happy and mentally engaged. No matter what, you can rest assured that your loved one will be among friends and taken care of. Our facility is a choice you and your loved one can both feel good about.

We are a Diamond Accredited senior care facility that provides excellent care across Wisconsin. Our company first started in 2001 in Milton, but we grew to have two more locations in Waterford and Beloit. Our continual growth is due to our compassionate, dignified care in friendly environments that help residents feel at home.

Our Waterford location is specifically designed for those suffering from Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other memory problems. We build personalized care plans for each senior, ensuring they receive the care and enrichment they need to be happy and comfortable.

Memory care is a specialized form of senior living designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or other memory-related conditions. Unlike assisted living, memory care provides a secure environment, structured daily routines, and personalized care plans that support both physical safety and emotional well-being.

Families often turn to memory care when a loved one begins to show signs such as increased confusion, wandering, difficulty managing daily activities, or when caregiving at home becomes overwhelming.

At Great Lakes Senior Living – Waterford, our memory care program is built around comfort and dignity. Our environment is thoughtfully designed to reduce stress and encourage engagement, with features like:

• Secure entries and monitored common areas to ensure resident safety
• Specialized staff training in dementia and Alzheimer’s care
• Enrichment therapies such as music, art, and sensory activities
• Small, intimate community spaces that encourage connection and familiarity

Every detail of our memory care setting—from the floor plan to the daily activities—is centered on helping residents feel safe, supported, and valued.

Making the decision to move a loved one into memory care can be emotional and challenging. We work with families every step of the way to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible. Our process includes:

1. Assessment & Consultation – We meet with you and your loved one to understand their needs.
2. Personalized Care Planning – A tailored plan is created to address daily routines, health requirements, and preferences.
3. Family Communication – We provide updates and opportunities for involvement so families feel connected.
4. Supportive Transition – Our compassionate staff guides residents through the adjustment period with patience and care.
